Hey guys i have problem with starting my car after preforming mini swap on my car. Here is the story I have 92 eg hatchback with d16y7 motor in it. I bought dry nos kit from my friend, which was installed on my car with 55 shot. After going throu 2 bottles the engine gave up and I was running on 3 cylinders. We preformed the compression test on it and number 2 cylinder had 30 psi. After removing the head the problem was clear one of the exhust valves was fried and was craked in half. Luckly there was no damage to piston or the cylinder walls. I had jdm single head laying in the storage for a while so its was time that to bring it out. The head was resurfaced and I added obx cam gear which I got from a friend. Its was a perfect time to change the the water pump and the timing belt. We put in new head, intake manifold, throtlebody gaskets and the new cam seal. After putting everything together and torque the head to specs geting timing on which was a mission we were done!!! The moment of truth was near but for some unknown reason the engine rolls over but dosent start. There is no spark comming from distributor to the engine!!! We trayed diffrent distributor but no luck I'm really out of ideas what it might be wrong with it!! Please help any ideas sugestios are very welcome. Thanx

 

Hows your coil? ... Try a diff main relay

 

Ignitor? Coil? Check to see if they are burned

 

does the main relay clicks?

 

Listen closely to the main relay, make sure you hear the fuel pump priming. If it is priming/clicking your main relay is more than likely not bad. Then check your engine harness to make sure you are getting good power to the dizzy. Black/Yellow will be hot to it. Check your grounds, ALL OF THEM...If you pulled the head off, you had to remove the ecu ground and top engine ground. Take a piece of sandpaper or a wire wheel brush on a drill and clean the areas that are grounded. I had the same problem I did all the above and then bought a new dizzy...fired right up.

But before you buy a new distributor try all the above first. Make sure it is at tdc on number 1 when you install the new dizzy. I know you can only put it in one way but, the honda service manual says to so I did. You can get that at hondahookup.com. Good luck...I hated when mine did this, It kept me up for 3 days until I figured it out.

 

i dont kno if u fixed it already but the same exact thing happened to me but it ended up just being the ignition fuse
